Peanut Butter and Chocolate Balls

This is one of those recipes that you just eye ball the ingredients then adjust if needed. These measurements are estimates. You want to end up with a play-dough like consistency, in fact you could use this as an edible play dough. It is a good source of fiber and protein.

1 cup of whole grain flour

1 cup of oatmeal

½ cup of peanut butter

¼ to ½ cup of honey or pure maple syrup

¼ to ½ of crushed chocolate chips

¼ cup of milled flax seed (opt.) adds more fiber

Mix together. Roll into balls. Eat right away or stick them in the freezer for a few minutes to get them cold. You can use crushed nuts or coconut instead of the chocolate chips.

Enjoy!
